Iain, My understanding is that Renal dialysis staff do not perform EPP work, the reason why hep B sAg or immunity to hep B were checked was in relation to an HSG document, about putting patients on dialysis. Hence, our Trusts decision not to do further tests as done for other EPP staff, the same as Rita.
